🚫 How to Request a Manual Review for a Disabled Facebook Ad Account

If your Facebook Ad Account has been disabled, don’t panic—this happens more often than you think. Facebook’s automated systems can flag accounts by mistake due to unusual activity, policy violations (real or perceived), or changes in billing behavior. This guide will walk you through how to request a manual review so your ad account can be re-evaluated and possibly reinstated.

 

🧭 Step-by-Step: Request a Manual Review

✅ Step 1: Log Into Facebook Business Manager

Go to:
👉 https://business.facebook.com

Make sure you're logged into the account associated with the disabled ad account.


🚨 Step 2: Visit Facebook's Account Quality Page

This is where you'll see the reason for the restriction and can submit your review request.

➡️ Go to:
👉 https://business.facebook.com/accountquality

Here you’ll find:

  • Disabled ad accounts

  • Violations or policy flags

  • Any business restrictions

Click on the disabled ad account for more details.


✅ Step 3: Click “Request Review”

If your account is eligible for review:

  • You'll see a “Request Review” or “Disagree With Decision” button

  • Click the button

  • Fill out the form with the requested details

📝 Be polite and professional. If you believe the disabling was an error, explain briefly that you’ve reviewed the policies and are requesting a second look.

Example Message:

"Hi, I believe my ad account was disabled in error. I’ve reviewed Facebook’s advertising policies and would like to request a manual review. I’m committed to following all guidelines and would appreciate the opportunity to correct any issue."


🔁 Step 4: Monitor Your Support Inbox

After you’ve submitted the review request:

  • Watch for replies or updates from Facebook’s support team

  • You may also receive emails at the address connected to your Business Manager


📆 What Happens Next?

  • Manual reviews typically take 24–72 hours, but in rare cases, it can take longer.

  • Facebook may:

  • Reinstate your ad account

  • Request more information

  • Keep the account disabled (in which case, you can try appealing again or creating a new account if permitted)


🧠 Pro Tips to Avoid Future Issues

  • Avoid Flagged Content: No misleading claims, unrealistic results, or policy-triggering language.

  • Use Business Manager: Ensure your Business Manager is verified and connected properly.

  • Consistent Billing Info: Sudden payment method changes can flag your account.

  • Warm Up New Ad Accounts: Don’t launch high-spend campaigns right away—start small.


🔄 Can’t Request Review?

If the “Request Review” button is missing, try:

  • Searching “Contact Support”

  • Using the chat or email support options (if available to your account tier)

Not all accounts are eligible for direct support, but business-verified accounts often are.
